"One of my favorite SITES lessons I taught was when I brought a stethoscope to class and had the kids pretend to be doctors and patients; the kids were really engaged, and it united my interests in medicine, Spanish, and working with kids. I’m now a second year medical student hoping to specialize in pediatrics, and I spend my free time volunteering at Puentes de Salud, a clinic that serves the undocumented Latinx immigrant community in southern Philadelphia and runs an afterschool education program at a local elementary school. SITES gave me invaluable experience that will make me a better doctor."
